"Here’s a polished version that still feels honest and helpful:
This is a family-run hotel with the owners living downstairs and the guest rooms located upstairs with private outdoor stairways and entrances. The family was very kind and accommodating throughout our stay, and they even allowed us to park in their carport, which was greatly appreciated.
The room itself was clean and simple with the bare essentials. There is no TV, but the room does have air conditioning. It took quite a while for the room to cool down, so I would recommend turning the A/C on before heading out for the day so it is comfortable when you return.
One of the best features of the property is the outdoor space. There are a couple of tables on the upstairs deck where you can sit and enjoy the ocean view. You can also walk directly onto the beach through the back gate, and they have a palapa on the beach with a table and chairs that are perfect for relaxing or enjoying a meal by the water.
Overall, this is a budget-friendly stay in a great beachfront location with very friendly hosts.

"Absolutely loved this place. Staff was very friendly and helpful and the property was gorgeous. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing stay on the beach."
"Great breakfast to start the day. Jose is a great server and made the best limon margaritas we had on the trip. Restaurant menu was excellent balance of food we knew and with a Mayan twist. Owner Amy Jo was welcoming and on site to offer suggestions and support for the area.
Thank you"
"Perfect and beautiful view of sunset, right on the water, ocean view, clean and comfy stay, massage was great, only thing is the parking is not on the property and is out on the open. But a place to surely stay and experience quite and peaceful moment."
"The staff and service is exceptional, from a cold towelette and welcome drink on arrival to setting a small bonfire in front of our evening dining table for ambience. This was our second stay. The converted old hacienda is a delight. It is small and tranquil, located in a rather remote area in a small pueblo which is safe but doesn't have any activities. There are all two pools, a garden with a demonstration of Mayan indigenous medicinals and herbs (if you are lucky to be there at the right time), a spa (which I haven't used), a wonderful restaurant (dining on the veranda), and a library with books and games located in the 1909 administration building of the hacienda (which looks like a church). Exceptionally clean and staff is so attentive that the bottled water we had consumed upon arrival at 4pm was replaced by 6 pm while we were strolling the grounds. Rooms are comfortable and serene, but not lavishly appointed or modern, keeping with the atmosphere of the hacienda. Mattresses and pillows are very comfortable and with crisp, high-end sheets. Rooms have good A/C. We had a hiccup with our hot water and the management quickly attended to it. Can't wait to return to this special place."
"Room has windows on all sides, and mine had other rooms all around. Folks were walking around at night and early in the morning with lights. I didn’t sleep well. Breakfast was fine, but not great. "
